February 20, 2021I used Oakwood solicitors to purchase a property after using them for other services previously having no issues. On this occasion it was completely the opposite to what I have experienced previously, Communication was non-existent, constantly chasing for updates, never returned calls. On the day of completion they never called me to advise the purchase […]

caroline kendrew
October 23, 2020Used this company for the sale of our property. Found it very frustrating that not one of my enquires about how things were progressing was answered. Had to totally rely on the buyer and our estate agent for updates. Sorry guys but you fell way short of your own service standards on this one.
spike2k00
October 23, 2020Very very slow transaction process, constantly chasing them up and takes them a week just to look at a report. Clearly they prioritise their work load on bigger jobs and hold on to people??s money even when they??re ready to proceed.

Stuart Withers – Memo
March 23, 2019I’m giving these two stars to their initial consultation with me, not with their actual solicitor services in general. Initially, I was informed my claim, and submitted evidence would be reviewed and that I would receive a response in 3-5 working days. After making contact and submitting more evidence I still had heard nothing back […]

March 23, 2019This is formerly Michael Lewin Solicitors, not sure if they have merged or been taken over. Very poor service, signed a CFA for my mortgage mis selling claim after advice. They then messed me about and cancelled it after spending a week dealing with them, collating and sending documents. They tried to fudge my complaint, […]
Oliver Burton
March 23, 2019The worst experience ever. Dealing with a CPO at one of our units that is underway. All they had to do was draw up a contract between the parties, we had already agreed with the council to Move, all terms were agreed. We trusted them to make sure we were covered. They were extremely unresponsive […]

Georgia Mitchell
March 23, 2019My first time ever using a solicitors and the service i have had is disgusting. The lady dealing with my claim suddenly turned into a ghost and every time i called she was on her lunch or in another call or wasnt in the office i was told she would call me back as soon […]

March 23, 2019Extremely complex mental health injury at work case. It was clearly way too much for this company to handle. Person dealing with case was extremely professional, and understanding, it was just a shame that the case was too complex for them (a fault on my part I guess). Wish we had went with a different […]

March 23, 2018Not what they state on website. Dont go if you are suing work or help with tribunals.

Why be no win no fee firm […]
